Resident Evil 4 takes you on a secret mission at a mysterious location in Europe, where you will fight not-zombies in an attempt to recover the Presidents daughter.
Resident Evil 4 is being appropriately billed as the game that takes the series in a bold, new direction. This seems immediately apparent just minutes after the game begins, when Leon is confronted not by the sorts of mindless zombies that typified previous Resident Evil installments, but by a haggard man who seems decidedly displeased by Leons presence and completely ignores the threat of his 9mm pistol as he menacingly approaches, axe in hand. The cover of the box depicts these sorts of torch-and-pitchfork-wielding disgruntled natives whom Leon will be dealing with in Resident Evil 4, so the question youll be wondering is, what exactly are these Spanish-speaking folks major malfunctions that cause them to want to murder Leon by any means necessary, and without any concern for their own safety? The games humanoid enemies seem much more unsettling than your typical zombies, since they show basic signs of intelligence, yet their hatred for Leon far eclipses their own survival instinct. Still, itll take just one slash of a sickle or one pitchfork gouging to teach you to terminate these savages without hesitation. Theyre creepy, memorable foes. And, without spoiling anything, theyre just the tip of the iceberg.
